The 14″ Tendon Stripper, Autoclavable Handle, 3 mm is a specialized orthopedic surgical instrument designed to assist with controlled tendon harvesting, separation, and preparation. Its extended 14-inch length provides additional reach when working along the length of a tendon, while the 3 mm working size offers a defined configuration for procedures requiring a narrow tendon stripper.
Tendon strippers are commonly incorporated into orthopedic and sports medicine instrument sets for procedures involving tendon harvesting. The specialized working end is designed to facilitate controlled advancement along the tendon while helping the surgeon maintain appropriate handling and direction throughout the procedure.
The 14-inch shaft provides extended access compared with shorter tendon strippers and may be useful when greater reach is required during tendon preparation. The 3 mm working specification provides a compact profile suitable for applications where a smaller working size is preferred.
The autoclavable handle is designed to support routine surgical instrument processing. Proper cleaning, inspection, maintenance, and sterilization should be performed according to validated healthcare-facility procedures and applicable manufacturer instructions. Before use, the working end and handle should be inspected for cleanliness, alignment, movement, and signs of damage or wear.
Constructed from high-quality surgical materials, the instrument is designed for durability and dependable handling in professional surgical environments. Its dedicated configuration makes it a practical addition to orthopedic, sports medicine, reconstructive, and tendon-related surgical instrument collections.
The 14″ Tendon Stripper, Autoclavable Handle, 3 mm is intended for use by qualified surgical professionals in appropriate clinical settings. When properly maintained and processed, it can serve as a reusable component of specialized surgical instrument sets.
